martona Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I'm not sure if this is LW-related or present in Vanilla as well, but there's a very annoying bug that disables saving. It goes like this: - Ethereal or Sectoid Commander mind controls a soldier - Squadmates kill the mind-controlling alien - Soldier being released from mind control rolls against panic. About 50% of the time this ends up being "Panic 0%: Failure". - Soldier does not actually panic. He does get the panic heartrate animation under his health bar, and every time you switch to him he'll scream and moan just like when entering panic. You can normally use him however: move, use items, shoot, etc. - While the soldier is in this state, the game cannot be saved. F10 makes the farty beep, the menu says "the game cannot be saved at this time". - The soldier will only come out from this pseudo-panic if he gets genuinely panicked (by way of, say a sectoid using Panic on him) then comes off of that, either by letting the turn timer count down or using Psi Inspiration. The latter does nothing to reset his not-really-panicking-but-disabling-save condition. If you're interested in resolving this I'll make sure I dig up a save where this is about to happen. I just wanted to check in and see if this is a known issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
